Help your Team Members to be healthy.

Dear Business Owner, Thank you and your team members for hosting me these past three years. It has been fun terrorizing everyone throughout the world. Talk about a multicultural experience!

I’ve created a New Work Order to add to the chaos! I’m looking for your key team members.

Here are a few gifts I left behind for you:

FEAR, Baby!
Long-term recovery times with “fog brain”, neurological symptoms, and baby issues because Mom was pregnant and caught me.
Heightened fear and anxiety across the board
Children set back at least one grade
Jobs left behind
Fatigued workers
Dumbed-down social skills
Students and employees unable to focus
Lack of sleep and relaxation
No-Plan for the future
Please add your own!

These are unintended consequences I couldn’t avoid:

Appreciation for medical personnel and hospital staffs
Appreciation for essential workers
Appreciation for teachers

My cousins are due to arrive this holiday season. I hope you’ll have room to put them up. I hope you are prepared to run your businesses differently and treat your personnel with care. They’ve been through a lot–I tested them frequently!

If you have not already taken stock of improvements to overcome my intrusion, now’s the time to take inventory. Consider these ideas:

Be sure your team keeps their hands washed and clean at all times.
Continue to sanitaize work and eating surfaces.
Be kind to people who call in sick so they don’t infect others.
Find cute masks, preferably ones with see-through sections to show off smiles.
Determine how many of your staff are vaccinated to see if you achieve “herd immunity.”
Pay your team a hazard bonus to show your appreciation when possible. Payment may be other than cash like time off, a gift certificate, or fun outing.

Until then, I will make an effort to see you again soon.

Love,

COVID

A take on the correlation between coaching and high performance . . .

June 2, 2022

This is a question often asked by people who do not have a coaching experience. As we learn easily from examples, my analogy for the relationship between coaching is with sports figures, Olympians, and fitness gurus. Sure, they can train by themselves. The coach is an assurance policy they will produce the best outcome from an objective perspective. Performance progress is about improvement and advancement from the last episode. The coach is the witness and expert to call out what needs improvement and what is excellent. For example, the coach may demonstrate technique, yet may not be scoring a 10 on their own style. They are experienced and studied to know without being the best athlete themselves.

The role of the coach:

The coach is a witness and sounding board.
A coach encourages and inspires the pupil to keep moving forward.
A coach questions and promotes thought into action.
A coach challenges the pupil beyond self-limiting beliefs.

Years of research and interaction with clients show me the top five issues a coach responds to regarding a client’s performance at work and on a personal level—

Belief
Environment
Fear factor
1. Imposter syndrome Smartest person in room
  1. Prove to oneself they are worthy
2. Procrastination
  1. Fear-based behavior
  2. Don’t want to make a bad decision
    1. Self-Victimization
    2. Steeped in criticism
  3. FOMO—Fear of Missing Out
    1. Too much emphasis on what others think about oneself.
    2. Fear of left behind, abandonment
  4. Tolerances
    1. Sap energy
    2. Distractions
  5. Temperament
    1. Persistent
    2. Optimistic v pessimistic
    3. Self-definitions of achievement and success

These manifest in negative or positive self-talk and body language. They can be culprits for self-sabotage.

The coach holds up a mirror to the client so he/she can see themselves for who they really are in a safe space. No criticism only room for improvement and powerful questions that bring issues to the foreground. Course corrections are made with the full commitment of the client; the client knows that coach has his/her best interest always. The trust must be established. The relationship is sacred and promotes growth, understanding, and fulfillment on one’s own terms.

How does your work environment, even as a solopreneur, create a high-performance impetus for you to thrive?*

Why is this topic so critical?

The ultimate trust bond We put our lives in their hands!

This is how we begin to build an award-winning culture in the workplace and at home. That will be our next entry.

10-Point System Multi-Dimensional Leadership System™

August 12, 2019

Positive Potentials’ 10-Point System Multi-Dimensional System™

In our book (see products), Magnetic Leadership, I pour my passion about the learned, values-driven leadership style. My theme centers around The End of Dominance: Enter the Multi-Dimensional Leader.

We have all heard about Servant Leadership and Shared Leadership. These ideas are much harder to implement. A company’s culture must be receptive to such ideas and demonstrate a desire to reap the benefits of such models.

The Multi-Dimensional Leader’s™ (MDL) model

The MDL makes decisions founded on long-range values and reasonable risk rather than reaction and illusion.

Has an innate sense of balance and alignment.
Dares to live daily integrity, even when it is difficult to “do the right thing.”
Possesses uncanny vision and courage to be different or contrarian.
Attracts and fosters self-reliant and self-motivated collaborations, people and resources.
Radiates emotional intelligence and teaches others this acquired skill just by being in her/his presence.
Embraces the value of mentoring and professional coaching
Cultivates entrepreneurial energy within the most rigid organization; breathes the vision to elevate the Purpose, Profits and Productivity for everyone within their sphere of influence.
Possesses presence and security to inspire confidence in others
Fosters Business Literacy™ throughout the company and service providers.
Respects and sponsors lifelong learning and models it.

When supporting our clients, we craft the vision in several ways:

• Identify qualities like those listed above.

• Determine Fish, flesh or fowl—What do you stand for?

• Offer strategic transitions, adaptation, and modification for the existing company culture to become the leader’s vision.

• Define, develop the Entrepreneur’s Mindset™* and apply Entrepreneurial Energy to each level of the company to stimulate ownership.

• Strategize and encourage visionary and values-driven leadership in others- productive associates and beneficial alliances who share the values.

The outcome of using Positive Potentials’ model is long-term results

• Generates increased revenue streams for maximum profitability and resilience in volatile markets.

• Uses Business Literacy™ and LaserLearning™ Principles to shorten the company’s learning curve (reduced bureaucracy, meritocracy rewards, open architecture, and boosted prized innovation).

• Manifests self-referred associates bringing freshness to their positions for greater accuracy and energy.

• Effortless flow rather PUSH/PULL. Stimulates flow performance (based on Mihaly Csiksentmihaly work with optimal experience.)

• Demonstrates value of streamlined and integrated business operations and processes focused on positive outcomes and results.

• Inspires all associated with the company and its providers to meaningful work and output, referrals, increased sales, and branding.
